<p>The 2025 rankings update has come and gone with over 240 players ranked. Guard play is important as it is vital for success and the rising senior class has the potential to make plays with the ball in their hands. Here are the top point guards in the 2025 class.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578536' first='Jaysean' last='Williams'], 5'10 Patrick School</strong></h2>   <p>Williams is the top lead guard in the rankings update and has the potential to make noise this summer. The 5'10 guard has a tight handle, which he uses to blow by his defender and can finish in a variety of ways around the basket. Williams has a good touch on his floater and sets his feet before he shoots. He can find his open teammates in the halfcourt and slides his feet on the defensive end. Williams is a speedy lead guard prospect who should make plays with the ball in his hands over the next couple of months.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1483438' first='Peyton' last='Miller'], 6'1 St. Peter's Prep</strong></h2>   <p>Miller has had a strong spring and should carry it over into the summer. The 6'1 guard has a good first step, which he uses to get by his defender and finish around the basket. Miller has a nice release on his jumper and can also play off the ball. He works hard on the defensive end and pushes the ball well in transition. Miller's ability to play on and off the ball makes him a prospect to track this offseason.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411627' first='Jamir' last='McNeil'], 6'0 Middle Township</strong></h2>   <p>McNeil was a Third Team All-State performer in 2023-24 and has the ability to repeat the feat in 2024-25. The 6'0 lefty attacks the basket with a purpose as he finishes strong around the basket and does not mind contact. McNeil can find his open teammates in the half court and rarely gets rattled by on-ball pressure. He uses his length to disrupt opposing players and is a strong rebounder for a guard. McNeil's ability to impact the game at both ends of the floor will help his stock in a big way.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Dwayne Snead Jr, 6'1 Pennington</strong></h2>   <p>Snead Jr is an intriguing prospect to watch with his ability to play on and off the ball. The 6'1 lefty has a good handle, which he uses to get into the lane and finishes nicely around the basket. Snead Jr can also score in the mid-range and moves well without the ball in his hands. He slides his feet well on the defensive end and can generate deflections to start fast breaks. Snead Jr is a talented guard prospect who should make an impact this summer at both ends.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411630' first='AJ' last='Altobelli'], 5'11 Union Catholic</strong></h2>   <p>Altobelli was the metronome for the Vikings' attack, leading them to their first ever Union County Tournament title. The 5'11 guard plays with poise on the ball as he rarely gets sped up and is unafraid of taking big shots in crunch time situations. Altobelli is a crafty finisher around the basket and shoots the ball with confidence from behind the arc. He can thread passes to teammates in the halfcourt and plays with good anticipation on the defensive end. Altobelli is a gamer who does whatever it takes to help his team win games.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Other Prospects to Know:</strong></h2>   <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1271427' first='Judah' last='Hidalgo'], 6'4 Paul VI</strong></p>   <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411626' first='Zayier' last='Dean'], 6'0 Red Bank Regional</strong></p>   <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2339156' first='Lucas' last='Dipasupil'], 5'10 Northern Highlands</strong></p>   <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1988904' first='Tristan' last='Davis'], 5'9 St. Benedict's</strong></p>   <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2339146' first='Jamir' last='Westry'], 5'10 College Achieve</strong></p>
